he's not the alpha and Omega of Lagos but he changed the face, directives and impression of Lagos State and I'm sure if any Governor in the history of the East done half of what Tinubu did the over hype no go be from this planet

Enugu, Port Harcourt and Kano are all international airports.

IfnobeGod20:

Nobody doubt that but to be making senseless submission as if it was Tinubu that made Lagos what it is today, it is a big lie. Lagos has been a bustling and bubble city for ages and people have been going there immemorial. Tinubu is not the architect of Lagos but FG. If the same FG effects in Lagos is also in Kebbi or Imo or Delta states, they would have also attained the same status.
Let FG open up all the ports and airports in each state for import and export and see what will happen. The Lagos IGR will drastically reduced and will be transfer to other states.

IfnobeGod20:

Please does his performance near Fashola's performance? I am just asking. If he was wise, he should have supported someone like Fashola who have untinted record of achievements but his greediness doesn't allow him. If it were Tinubu of 1999 or 2003, we can even manage him but not the Tinubu with memory loss, that are not concurrent and forgetful nowadays. Nigeria is a sick country, we need a vibrant and energetic president, who can work round the clock to save the souls of this country from collapse. There's need for every lovers of this country to think of the future of this country and plan for our unborn generation. Nigeria must rise as the Lord liveth.
Note this, Nigeria is bigger than anyone ambition at the detriment of Nigeria progress.

What you know but deliberately argue against is that Lagos naturally attracts investors. That's why people of diverse races and tribes continue to troop to the metropolis.

Ever before the creation of your FG or the 1914 amalgamation, Lagos had been the center of slave and other commodity trades. You can visit Badagry for more education.

If the SW had been allowed to have their country in 1960 and Awolowo allowed to continue with the developmental projects he was carrying out in the Western Nigeria of then, Lagos would still have been developed albeit less crowded and more organized. The region would have earned more money from issuing visa and residence permits.

The Nigerian system and the wave of importation business had led to the death of many companies once operating from the industrial estates built by Awolowo in Western Nigeria of then, including Ikeja which is now part of the modern-day Lagos State. Western Region had its own scholarship for the students of the region back then I think you are aware.

One thing you should know is that the Yorubas have had century of a traditional governing system with a check and balance mechanism developed in the form similar to a parliamentary system ever before the advent of the Europeans and that had somehow helped the people of the region in organizing themselves politically.

Nevertheless, other regions of the country also have resources they can really develop with.

IfnobeGod20:

Your piece only corroborated what I have been saying. That the development of Lagos has been steady for ages and had been a bubbling and bursting city for long. People have made Lagos a target city to go as far back due to its peculiarity. But lately different effects introduced by FG also compounded the situation, like the Lagos ports that is the only international port in Nigeria. No goods on cargo comes into Nigeria that is not through Lagos ports why the rest ports had been neglected by FG. Same with airport. So the same with many companies and enterprises, that head offices can either be in Lagos or Abuja. No single importers as at today that doesn't have their warehouses in Lagos.
If FG can decentralize these effects that are giving Lagos much IGR, by opening other ports and airports to international businesses, it will surely open up many states too.

Agbado structure.

maybe if Anambra has the same number of agbero it might also be among but for where ipob own is even worst than the agbero own cos no agbero gave law that people should not go out on Monday

IfnobeGod20:

FG policy made Lagos and Abuja the sole international airports. Anyone that wish to travel overseas must either go to Lagos or Abuja
Anything you also wish to import must also come through Lagos ports before going to different states.

So Obi is the right man ? How I wish I could quickly forget what obi did to other tribe in Anambra when he was the governor of the state I only pity any mumu Yoruba supporting Igbo because they're already lost in history

MOST IMPORTANTLY VOTE FOR YOUR CHOICE AND DON'T TRY TO FORCE YOUR OWN CHOICE DOWN MY THROAT BECAUSE IM BATIFIED

Islandlady:
Some bitterleafs have started Wailing already!

Tinubu is the next president! Simple

Authority1o1:
Okay...

Obi was not even in Nasarawa, but the match held in his support was more heartwarming than this 50-man gathering despite the fact that Tinubu was there.

Meanwhile, how can anyone want Nigeria to be like Lagos? The Lagos that is the second most inhabitable city in the world or the one that is terribly slow in development due to the fact that Tinubu has the IGR in his back pocket?

Is that what he wants to do to Nigeria?

SisterAnn:
Druggie did not develop Lagos. Lagos was already a colony before he was born. It later became capital city. You are not an intelligent kid that's why you didn't know these

Fujiyama:

^^^
A lack of education has put a massive chip on your shoulder. By the grace of God we shall gently take it down and you shall be free.

That lack of education has led you to equate development with revenue generation. They are not the same thing, although there is a relationship between the two.

The poster you quoted was specific in his choice of words - he/she referred to the "slow development" of Lagos state. Probably because he/she is aware of the well known difference between (economic) growth and development - a difference you are clearly ignorant of.

Your lack of education has bred great resentment and anger in you but that isn't anybody's fault. Accept my sympathy but you need to put the insults away and you may learn something.

A mind is a terrible thing to waste.

paxonel:
do you know that you are so daft?

Lagos that was developed largely by colonial masters Engineered by Sir Frederick Lugard an administrator of the British colony called Nigeria in the early 1920's. How does that got to do with today Tinubu?

You think Lagos fall down from heaven or what?

If not for British colonization, Lagos for nor different from Epe or ikorodu.
You are here shouting as if Tinubu did anything

IfnobeGod20:

Why are you people always thinking those not in support of Tinubu are from the south east? What a myopic thinking. I am Omoluabi and Tinubu can never be Omoluabi's project but APC project.
Have this as to maintain peace in your mind, not all Yoruba will support Tinubu's life time ambition because all of us cannot think in the same direction because of Tinubu. Democracy allows freedom of choice and assembly. Millions of Yorubas will never support him, let that sink into you.

mycar:

BUT IN 2015, by this time, it was brooms everywhere, but what would broom signify now? Sweeping APC out, corruption or Buhari?

IfnobeGod20:

This is the problem of some of you. Every little discourse, you turned it to ethnic issue. Who told you I am not a Yoruba? You guys must know that not all Yorubas will vote or support Tinubu. All of us cannot sleep and out our heads on one place because we are wiser on issues.
My advise, don't kill yourself in defence of what you cannot control because not all Yorubas will vote for him. And I am one of them with my entire household and I have called my mum and those living with her, on the direction of our voting next year.
Vote your Tinubu and never think Tinubu is a Yoruba project. He can never be Yoruba project but APC project.

Before 1999, was Lagos not the Federal capital of Nigeria? You have forgotten so soon that the FGN developed Lagos State. Na wa for some people o. Just peddling lies to sell their candidate. Anyway, like father, like children.

There are lots of things to sweep out in that society for the place to become a country worthy of being sustained!
Endemic Corruption in all strata of society, illiteracy, tribalism, banditry/kidnapping, fake religionists (in both Christianity & Islam) and Devotion to Self as opposed to Love of neighbour & country…..to mention a few!
Even if Buhari & his APC leave the scene tomorrow, and an Angel descends from the sky to govern the place, Nigeria may not be turned into Eldorado in the next 20 years as it is presently constituted and structured. As they say, water don pass garri!
Nigeria is a perfect example of an incongruous, non-homogenous and unwieldy entity that can only function after a surgical operation which the largely complacent people and their docile leadership are unwilling to undertake.
The country needs to be split into several “homogeneous nations” capable of sustaining themselves as happened with the USSR and other countries in Europe. Sorry for being so pessimistic but as we lay our bed, so we lie on it!!

You're the one who is daft! You should be called daft punk like the music band.

Lagos according to you was developed by colonial masters, kindly show how Lagos was developed by this so called colonial masters or forever hold your peace and bury your head in water and drown yourself.

The emboldened clearly show you need to go back to school. So Epe and Ikorodu aren't in Lagos or what is your already empty head that is devoid of common sense trying to say?

Please take a billion steps back and let's hope you fall into a ditch, because Nigeria already has too many idiots roaming about.
